My pregnancy journey (It's just me and her)

As I look through the photos, seeing how much this little life has grown inside me, I know myself well enough, that I will miss this moment very very soon. I will miss all the delicate preparations; mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. The thrill of announcing the good news to family and friends. The anticipation of waiting to find out the gender. Friends who visit and touch my belly wanting to know what it's like. The first ultrasound scan with just a little black dot. The first flickering heart beat. The naming part that I have kind of gone to a friendly battle with tubby for.



I won't be awake for all those private moments that baby rainbow and I have together, when no-one else is aware of. When she squirms in my belly when I talk to her about this world, about God and how God loves us everyday or when she hears me sing off-key or even when I try to sleep. When I am having 'MY private moment' and suddenly there is a knocking on my belly letting me know that everything is alright; God is in control.

For the next two months, it's just me and her. She is JUST mine and I am JUST hers. It's just the two of us. I am not alone. I was never alone.

She needs nothing but me and he's content. And so am I.

We look forward to your arrival. As for now, I will just smile as I feel you play within.

Savouring this moment before bidding farewell to this pregnancy.
